οὐ γὰρ ἐρῶ ὅτι αὐτὸς Ἀνδροτίων ἦγεν εἰς τὸ δεσμωτήριον καὶ ἔδει τούτου κειμένου τοῦ νόμου, ἀλλʼ ἐφʼ οἷς κεῖται ὁ νόμος οὗτος, διδάξω ὑμᾶς. οὗτος γάρ, ὦ ἄνδρες δικασταί, οὐκ ἐπὶ τοῖς κεκριμένοις καὶ ἠγωνισμένοις κεῖται, ἀλλʼ ἐπὶ τοῖς ἀκρίτοις, ἵνα μὴ διὰ τὸ δεδέσθαι χεῖρον ἀναγκάζοιντʼ ἀγωνίζεσθαι ἢ καὶ παντάπασιν ἀπαράσκευοι εἶεν. οὑτοσὶ δέ, ἃ ἐπὶ τοῖς ἀκρίτοις κεῖται, ὡς περὶ ἁπάντων εἰρημένα μέλλει πρὸς ὑμᾶς λέγειν.
